SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 274,873, dated March 27, 1883.

' Applicationiiled February 13, 1883. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, WILLIAM J. WING- HART and WILLIAM H. RocHEoRD, citizens of the United States, residing at New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented .new and useful Improvements in Hats Tips, of which the following is a specification.

This invention consists in a `hat-tip made of a piece of plain satin or other eqdivalent material cut to the required shape, and having printed thereon a stripe'ofdifferent color from its body in imitation of an inserted stripe. The stripe is ornamented with' imitation stitches, and, if desired, also with various designs or characters.

This invention is illustrated in the-accompanying drawing, which represents` a plan or face view of the hat-tip when completed.

In this drawing, the letter A designates a piece of satin or other material, such as may be employed for the manufacture of hattips. This piece is plain, either white or of any other desired color, and after it has been out out to the required shape for a hat-tip a stripe, B, is printed on it in a color different from the color Vof the body of the hat-tip. By these means a hat-tip is obtained which presents the same appearance as a hat-tip provided with an in-- -serted stripe, and the' imitation is rendered still closer by printing upon thestripe B two rows of imitation stitches, a d. The color of these imitation stitches may be, the same as that of the body of the hattip, or it may be any other color; but it is desirable to select a color different from that ot' the stripe B.

If the work is properly executed, ahattip is obtained which has such a close resemblance t0 a hat-tip with an insertedstripe that it can be distinguished only by close observation, and

in the manufacture of this new hat-tip much timeand labor, and also a large percentage of material, are saved as compared with a hattip having an inserted stripe.

` On the stripe B are also printed ornaments b, or certain words or characters may be printed thereon, so as to impart to the iinishcdarticle an ornamental appearance.

Of course our hat-tip may be used in caps or other head-coverings.

What we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. A hat-tip made of a piece of plain satin or other material suitable for the purpose, said piece being cut out to the required shape, and having printed thereon a stripe of different color from its bodyin imitation of an inserted stripe, substantially as shown and described.

2. A hat-tip made of a piece of plain mate rial cut out to the required shape, and having printed thereon a stripe of di'erent color from its body, said stripe having printed on its face two rows of imitation stitches, substantially as shown and described.

3. A hat-tip made of a piece oit' plain material cut out to the required shape, and having printed thereon a stripe of different color from its body, said stripe having printed on its face two rows of imitation stitches, and various ornaments or characters, substantially as shown and described.

In testimony whereof `we have hereunto set our hands and seals in the presence of two subscribing witnesses. t y.
